In a training, i saw a visitor come with a shinai tht had a double ring tsuba on his shinai... just like the one musashi had.. made of black plastic

(for those of you not familiar with musashi http://www.japanschwerter.de/Montierungen/tsuba/Bilder/Hon_Musashi_Tsuba.jpg )

anyone seen this? and anyone know where to get it?

ehmm.. its sorta outdated now...

before if the opponent was in jodan, u cld go for a mune tsuki, but now its been banned becuz it was too easy..

That's the point, don't expose yourself until your really know what your doing.

I've seen some other fancy tsubas in e-bogu website but haven't seen the Musashi one.

http://www.e-bogu.com/Shinai_s/25.htm

but it may pay to ask e-bogu as they've got a photo of musashi tsuba on the top....they might have one for shinai.

Good luck.

I think mystic_kendoka is looking for the Musashi tsuba for shinai not for Katana so the the middle hole should be wider to be able to fit shinai tsuka.
